From then on, Guanya Bureau's freight transportation was divided into two types: "passenger transportation" and "freight transportation."
Even if you don’t want to take the ride, as long as there is space, you can still pay the same amount.
After paying the money, you will get a dental card, use it to get on the bus and stay at the inn.
Both the Guanya Bureau and the inn recognize the cards but not the people.
If you don’t want to be squeezed into a car with others, you can also rent a car.
Someone made an estimate.
According to this year's statistics, the number of people who have been elected is about one thousand.
Even if only half of it was transported through the Guanya Bureau, there would be 500 people, and with the hotel tips, thousands of taels of snowflake silver would be recorded in the account.
And everyone knows that if you decide to take the exam, unless your family is very rich and can send servants and carriages to follow you, it is safest, most trouble-free, and saves money to go with the Guanya Bureau.
Especially those who have to cross the mountains from the southwest and southeast, no matter how many people are traveling together, they will all die the same death if they encounter robbers.
Therefore, the number of people who are asked to be transported by the Bureau of Civil and Dental Affairs must be far more than 50%.
For the Guanya Bureau, it is just a matter of convenience.
To put it bluntly, it is the difference between transporting dead and living animals, and the difference between using a cart and a horse-drawn carriage.
There are still the same number of people escorting, just adding a few horses and drivers.
Each Guanya post station can also earn a sum of money from each Juzi for food, accommodation and delivering letters, and they are all willing to take on this job.
As long as the science and technology continues, this business can be done every three years, which is simply a cornucopia of money trees.
In fact, when Zhu Bai was inspecting the Guanya Bureau, he had already ordered the Guanya Bureau in various places to build or buy small buildings next to Yuanyi Station and turn them into inns and separate courtyards.
It's just that the new inn is built according to the specifications of ordinary inns. There are no walls like city walls or small buildings like bunkers.
Then send two guards from the Guanya Bureau Post Station to patrol every night, and hire someone to cook and clean there.
The station manager is under unified management.
The first-level official bureau has begun to prepare the carriage, and the post station is also sorting out and cleaning all the rooms and preparing food and vegetables.
No one thought there was such a business opportunity, but it’s a pity that it’s useless now that they know about it.
After all, no one has the ability to open branches all over the Ming Dynasty in just a few months, with inns and transportation networks extending in all directions. Able to walk on official roads and canals.
Therefore, no matter who it is, they can only watch Zhu Bai make money.
When Lao Zhu heard Er Hu report this matter, he laughed so hard that he slapped his thigh: "What a great guy we are. There are so many ways to make money that you can't think of. I really have tried everything. No money will fall into other people's pockets." "
It's just that Zhu Bai's method of "freight" and "passenger transport" reminded some people why they have to work so hard on horseback. They can just take the Guanya Bureau's carriage.
Anyway, there are Guanya Bureau Stations all over the place.
If you don't have a carriage yourself and want to rent a carriage and driver, you will spend more money than paying the fare to the official dental bureau.
Especially for the elderly, young, women and children traveling, the "passenger" carriages of the Guanya Bureau are really the best choice for safety, efficiency, convenience and hygiene.
Not only the common people think it is good, but many officials also think it is good.
After all, the salary given by Lao Zhu is small, so save it if you can.
It doesn't matter if you just give money according to the price on the official board.
Guanya Bureau will deliver the goods as ordinary customers.
There are some people who want to take a ride but don’t want to pay.
I don’t know how many people the various government agencies have to turn away in a day.
Today, someone from the Shanxi Chief Secretary's first-level official bureau came. He was wearing a third-grade official uniform, and he seemed a bit arrogant.
The boss behind the Guan Ya Bureau is Lao Zhu, and the actual operator is King Xiang, so he is used to seeing first- and second-grade officials, so the people in the Guan Ya Bureau are not timid at all.
The man came in and said, "I'll make you have teeth."
After all, the tooth chief of the Guan Ya Bureau is the one who opens the door to do business, and he has no airs. He hurriedly came over and saluted: "Hello, sir, I am the tooth chief of this Guan Ya Bureau. Is there anything I can do for you?"
This is the standard way of greeting that Zhubo has trained them to do.
The man frowned: "Do you know who I am?"
Ya Chang looked at the man and answered honestly: "I don't know."
I don't know who you are. But you are the first one to call yourself "Master Hou" as soon as you enter.
You are a third-grade petty official, what are you doing?
The man was a little angry and said, "I am the Marquis of Ji'an, Lu Zhongheng. I have made great contributions to capturing the bandits, and I have been recalled by the emperor to receive a reward from heaven."
Does this have anything to do with our official dental bureau?
Ya Chang replied patiently: "Oh. Got it. What can I do for you?"
Lu Zhongheng said: "I will commandeer your carriage to respond to the sky."
Ya Chang didn't understand and asked, "rent it?"
Lu Zhongheng blushed: "Requisition, requisition means not to pay, but to use it directly."
Chief Ya shook his head: "I'm sorry. The carriages of the Guan Ya Bureau can only be requisitioned by the Emperor's decree."
The implication is, who are you? How dare you come to commandeer the Guanya Bureau's carriage.
Lu Zhongheng understood and became more and more angry.
He didn't dare to attack the people in the Guanya Bureau. He gritted his teeth and took a whip and whipped it at the officials who were about to get on the carriage: "Who do you think you are? You dare to snatch the carriage from me. I am in the mountains to arrest you." Bandits, they have gone through life and death just to protect you rogue people, so what’s wrong with riding in a carriage?! Shouldn’t it be?!”
Everyone screamed and ran away to avoid it.
Ya Chang was afraid that he would hurt the examinee, so he hurriedly said: "Okay, Mr. Lu, you can just take this carriage away."
These people all have meritorious status. If they are injured here, the Guanya Bureau will not be able to escape their involvement.
Moreover, Zhu Bai also said not to have any impulse with the court officials, but to endure it beforehand and report to him.
Only then did Lu Zhongheng stop his hand, and pointed the horsewhip at the tooth grower fiercely: "How good would it be if you got to know each other earlier? If you don't drink a toast, you will be punished with a drink."
He asked the guard to hitch the horse, and then the guard drove the cart. He sat on it and drove away.
The guests said: "Why are you doing this? You took the money and gave our car to others."
"That's right, they even let people hurt us."
Ya Chang said hurriedly: "Everyone, please be patient. I'll call for a new car right now."
The car that Chief Ya called was newly customized and planned to be upgraded to a first-class seat in the future. It was much more comfortable than the simple carriage just now, but it still charged the previous price.
Naturally, these nobles didn't have any objections, so they got in the car and left.
Lu Zhongheng proudly arrived at Yingtian in a free car, then stopped the carriage in front of the Guanya General Administration, took the horse and drove away.
I met someone halfway. The man came over, grabbed his wrist, and whispered: "Master Hu Weiyong asked me to tell Master Lu that you are in danger."
Lu Zhongheng was confused and was about to ask in detail.
The man had gone away in a flash.
The more Lu Zhongheng thought about it, the more wrong he became, so he asked someone to inquire, only to find out that the people who had been threatened by him with his whip that day had also jointly filed a lawsuit against Lao Zhu, saying that he was "taking advantage of the common people, running rampant in the countryside, without the king's laws, and unscrupulously."
